In memory of Armando Rivas Infante

"We are the family of Armando Rivas Infante.

I wanted to start this up for a man, my father, who has left us. A simple man but always caring, happy, and peaceful. He never wanted to stress, much less stress anyone out. He just always wanted life to be simple and easy for everyone. He cared about those he loved and even those he came to meet and know. My father was always kind to anyone he ever met. He had a daughter he kept in touch with and three sons.

My mother, Irma Fabiola Rios, loved him and will forever. She has lost a life partner whom she did everything with. Our Mother & Father are amazing honorable people and could always be found doing everything together. They were married for 38yrs and spent every night talking about what they would do the next day together, true life partners.”

My mother, a widow with three sons, will not be alone. My father will be up and watching over her and us from above now.

There are not enough kind words I can come up with to just state how much he always wanted to make people smile or see people happy while also wanting people to be at ease consistently. He had a “dad joke” for everything and almost couldn’t help himself to tell one (good or bad) when you interacted with him.

My parents left a country they loved and met in Venezuela so they could find a place to raise their kids and worked hard in trials & tribulations for us as the first generation in America.

I'm raising this fund to assist my family in all the ways I can for all the unfortunate expenses of a loved one passing. We’d trade the amount for more time in a heartbeat if it were an option. From our family's hearts, anything is appreciated and thank you for taking the time to read this. There is so much more I’d love to say about him. We are all just trying to process his loss."
